These days, adobe construction is one of the alternatives used in housing construction in Peru. Due to the low production cost and the ease of finding the manufacturing material, it is used mostly in rural areas and in self-construction. Although adobe has good thermal and acoustic properties, it does not adequately combat the floods produced by the changing climate of our country, eroding quickly and buildings built with this material generally collapse, it is worth mentioning that it also has a low capacity for resistance to compression. This research aims to evaluate the physical and mechanical properties of adobe, analyzing the incorporation of ichu or reed in the preparation of the adobe, adding 2%, 3.5% or 5% of these natural fibers to the preparation mud, using a conventional pattern adobe. of the Province of Huarochirí - Lima. In the additions of 2% in the compression test, better results were obtained with 15.18 kgf/cm2 and in the conventional adobe 14.25 kgf/cm2, in absorption and erosion the addition of 2% obtained 18.42% against the conventional adobe 24 .28% and in accelerated erosion Swinburne, for the addition of 5% obtained the most considerable improvement, obtaining 1.90 cm of erosion, against 2.90 cm of erosion in conventional adobe, verifying that the addition of natural fibers does contribute improvements in the physical and mechanical properties of adobe.
